This is very well done. And this sentiment applies to so so much right now. I feel it in my bones. 👇🏼

When are we gonna stop indulging this? Without undue sanctimony, I think one can say it’s wrecking the country. It’s a goddamn disgrace.

This all-male panel is deciding whether South Carolina women can be charged with murder for their pregnancies — and whether birth control and pro-choice websites stay legal.

This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

Thank you for calling it like you see it. What a way to repay women voters, particularly the non-white ones (especially the Black women) who have carried this party (along with too much other stuff) on their backs for far too long.

The many monarchs of Europe, the slaver's Confederacy, the Kaiser, the Nazis, the Italian fascists, Imperial Japan and many more all assumed that because liberals value peace and human life, that they were weak and feckless and easily beaten.

Go look for them now.
I think fundamentally the problem with post liberal thinkers is that they seem to assume that vanquishing liberalism results in their enemies being converted or defeated and not becoming radicalized into enemies who no longer extend the mercies they once did.

More amazing news!

In a historic move, New Mexico just became the first state in America to guarantee free, universal child care for all residents. 🩵

Families win, kids thrive, and the economy grows.

Now let’s get the entire U.S. to follow suit.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

I read this and assumed it was about baseball (what with bullpens clearing and whatnot) and still think it holds water.
There should be a guy one each team whose only job is to fight. Like when the queen chooses a knight to fight in her name.

funnily enough in my copywriting classes, i teach about why negation sucks

i teach:

pain: problem

negate: say “not / no longer [ problem ]” — weak and unpersuasive, links “problem” to your brand

obliterate: destroy the problem verbally. paint a clear picture of the world without the pain

This (moderate) level of racial competency is VERY rare for someone of this demo; white folks should’ve been listening to and learning from people like this for decades.

Sadly, it’s too late to dismantle racism, now. Racism has won.
White America chose it instead of a hyper-qualified Black Woman. 🙁

This. The president can't extort corporations to pay essentially taxes to him personally so that he can use that money at his personal discretion to do government work.
It flies under the radar because it is overwhelmed by the sheer repulsiveness of the physical destruction of the east wing, but there is no way that a president should be allowed to use private money to change public property. It circumvents the power of the purse.

The last sentence makes me so sad for the state of our affairs.
Two Trump-appointed judges of the Ninth Circuit let Trump send the troops into Portland, pausing another Trump appointee's TRO.

The only non-Trump appointee denounces the "political theater" behind the deployment, calling for an en banc review to stop it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

#BREAKING The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refuses to undo an order blocking deployment of National Guard troops within Illinois.

"We conclude that the district court's factual findings … were not clearly erroneous, and that the facts do not justify the President's actions in Illinois."
